The Portland Thorns didn't get a lot of sleep Saturday night
as they basked in the glory of winning the first NWSL championship with a 2-0
victory over the Western New York Flash.

They'll continue the party Wednesday with an NWSL
championship celebration at Jeld-Wen Field. The free event will begin at noon
and will be open to the public. Fans wanting to attend should enter the stadium
at gate 2 on the KeyBank Plaza located at the corner of SW 18th Ave and SW
Morrison St. The gates will open at 11 a.m.

Due to national team call-ups and other commitments, some
Thorns players will be unable to attend the event, including U.S. National Team
members Rachel Buehler, Tobin Heath and Alex Morgan, as well as midfielder
Allie Long and forwards Christine Sinclair and Tiffany Weimer.

The event will include an NWSL championship trophy
presentation and autograph signings. Head coach Cindy Parlow Cone and other
Thorns players will speak at the event.
